Friends?
Of course...but I will not be the last person confused with your posts and you will get some angry replies.

Look for threads that are entitled something like "HTML Sandbox". There will be friendly folks there who will take you through the basic HTML codes so your posts will conform to the "standard" freeper style.

Ask Ms. G (Geezerette).
I helped her a few years ago and she got the hang of it fast.
Its also quite fun!

In the mean time....may I suggest that you pull only the part of what someone has posted that you wish to comment on. (Not their whole post...only what is relevant to what you

[Put that part in brackets]

Then make white space before your comments.

Have fun freeping....it's my neighborhood bar (and much better for me than drinking.... ha ha)



Thank you Eddie, I will strive to make better posts, I noticed that some tonight did not do what I wanted them to do? Good for Geezerette, but I am not there yet, younger than you think. Will look at your information again. I hope this one works right. I always include the whole post so I don't take people out of context, such as the Washington Post did today.

LOL....oh crap!

I meant to post to you not ByDesign.

I always include the whole post so I don't take people out of context, such as the Washington Post did today.

Please don't do that.

If someone is curious, they can always click the "To #, that is placed in blue at the bottom of your post. (When you click on the "To #, you will instantly go to the original post that you are referring to)

Quoting the whole message means that your point gets lost...it takes up too much space and, to be honest, it's downright annoying.
